I noteced that as well - especially round the battery remaining indicator on the driver‘s screen. I think they may have done something with the font weight or aliasing - subtle but somethings seems not quite the same as before. I was going to take a before and after photo on my gen2 after...

I’ve heard the same thing from folks with badges: that the dual battery system may fail with if a battery is not fantastic, the single battery system is expected fail at some point. Many more discharge/charge cycles and no meaningful changes to the BMS.

I’m confused as to if I was hit or not (or had/have a variation of it): with 46.0 our gen2 would charge 8A on level2 when the off peak charging schedule was active but it was outside of off peak hours - and then would ramp up to 48A when actually off peak. ie it was charging when I think it...

Same - guess it’s the got the bug fix in that seemed to stall 46.0

Lemon it and get a Cybertruck next then? (I'm hoping that a spot of grease fixes my issue, which I'll ask about when it goes in for this - I've not been to a service center this year and want to keep it that way long as possible! :D )

I'm certainly going to be on the list (along with 19,640 other folk), Alignment, Rear disconnect and other work means this has almost certainly been touched - I wonder if this may be related to the creaking our truck does from the backend when turning tight corners (especially when reversing out...

Nice - looks great. Autonomy is fast moving towards looking like it will be a commodity tech in a few years with all major players having credible offerings. A rising tide raises all boats. Wonder if this is related to the recent mobileye deal with an unnamed mfr.

100% I’m half way through planning a pump track (supposedly for le kid, but just as much for me) - kid(s) bring wealth far beyond the tangible. Jimmy Carr said it well:

Incorrect, I did the spreadsheet and our kid is roughly equivalent to a mid to high(ish) end Ferrari (ie something you can buy without being a slave to the dealership or a a celeb and assuming it deprecates like a typical car).

All good - this is how I feel 98% of the day.

This is what our R1s show as well - are you looking to turn off proximity locking at home (the far right button in the center of your pic) or something else? right now with ‘lock and unlock’ selected your R1 should behave the same at home as it does elsewhere. You also have the option to just...

They are often viewed as ‘Chelsea tractors’ (to use a phase from my homeland). ie very few actually get used as they are marketed/designed. And 99% (stat pulled from le anus) of them are used for mall crawling, rather than any off-roading (including myself - the grass fields I occasionally drive...

Sounds like Nvidia Nvidia’ing - it’s a solid model and not to be dismissed lightly.

Is it fair to think of this as a ”standard“ nvidia play: develop the hardware and reference platforms, develop the software frameworks to utilize them, and then provide basic building blocks using those frameworks to take you to 90% of a product - at which point it’s up to the integrators to...

Overall the gen1 thermal systems are better implemented than gen2. I am able to compare them on a daily basis and agree with your observations - gen2 is certainty better in many respects but thermal management took a step back as they still have a few things to work out. I expect that R1 gen3...

Yes. We agree. Gen2 R1 and Tesla heat pump cars use electrically driven, hermetic compressors. That would be true if we were comparing to belt driven ICE HVAC. I am not. My benchmark is EV to EV, heat pump to heat pump, using the same class of electrically driven, hermetic compressors. I made...

Sir, This is not an apples to oranges comparison. Rivian Gen2 and Tesla heat pump vehicles are both using an electrically driven, hermetic compressor. A reversing valve is just a heat pump flow control component. It does not explain away NVH. I agree with one part of your point. Compressors...

This is terrible advice. The compressor design in gen2 R1s is awful from a NVH perspective; does it make the R1 a bad vehicle: no, but it’s the worst isolated/insulated compressor I’ve ever encountered (can anyone point to a consumer vehicle with a louder thermal system?). Our R1 has at times...

yes - which was the void. Its not an access issue, or limiting to network-owned chargers - Rivian will gladly guide me to EVgo chargers that are in car dealership yards and behind locked gates etc. Speaking to some other folks about this - it looks like rivian 'grandfathered' in some networks...

Folks here commenting on having 6ft folks in the back being fine, are not accounting for the shape of a rear-facing child seat. There's not much room behind the front seats in a R1 for rear-facing seats. We have an evenflow revolve 360 slim in each of our R1's - occupying the middle seat, which...
